?Development partners 

?These partners ensure a coordinated production of Integrated Breeding Platform (IBP) products and services, as well as of the different software tools at the heart of the Breeding Management System (BMS), each contributing to the design of different components:

 

 

Software development has been outsourced and centralised through our service provider Leafnode (formerly Efficio LLC), a professional private sector software development firm, to ensure that functionality and ease-of-use be optimal and aligned with industry standards.
 

                 ?

 

BMS commercialisation is undertaken by our core partner, VSN International Limited, a prime supplier of data analysis software for the biological and life sciences market worldwide. VSNi is also responsible for delivering Breeding View (BV) and the R analysis pipeline (R-AP) to the heart of BMS functionality. These new and exciting developments draw upon their acclaimed products GenStatTM and ASRemlTM

 

 

 

 

Wageningen Plant Research of Wageningen University & Research assist in developing BMS tools and training material. 

This website is hosted with Cyverse, (formerly iPlant Collaborative), a powerful, extensible platform for data storage, bioinformatics, image analyses, cloud services, APIs and more. As such, registering on the IBP website automatically gives users access to the complete range of iPlant tools and services. iPlant Collaborative enables biologists to do data-driven science by providing them with powerful computational infrastructure for handling huge datasets and complex analyses.

Regional Hubs

Institutions or programmes hosting Regional Hubs are privileged partners of the IBP who are working together as part of dynamic regional networks. They provide support in the use of modern tools (BMS) and services, mainly through capacity building, technical support and crop-specific expertise. Their role is to champion IBP tools and services in their region and to facilitate adoption by new users, having themselves integrated its methods to their day-to-day activities. Hubs also play a key role in interacting directly with local users to inform the development of new BMS functionality and usability features consistent with their expressed needs.

Breeding Services Provider Network

The Integrated Breeding Platform provides access to a network of service providers to facilitate the implementation of various stages of a breeding programme. Registered users can obtain these services at discounted fees. Click here for the complete list of service providers.

 


Strategic Collaborations

The IBP collaborates with other projects and initiatives, with a shared vision of improving breeding efficiency around the world. Our tools and services can be used in complementarity to what these other initiatives have to offer:

An important accomplishment of the Generation Challenge Programme (GCP) was the development of the Crop Ontology, a web-based set of controlled vocabularies and ontologies for the digital annotation of agricultural research data.

The IBP plays a vital role in the ongoing efforts to maintain, extend, and enhance this invaluable resource.

Genomic Open-source Breeding Informatics Initiative (GOBII) is a large-scale public-sector effort to systematically apply high-density genotypic information to the breeding of staple crops in the developing world. The project will develop and implement genomic data managment systems, including databases, imputation systems, and decision support tools for plant breeders.

The Breeding Application Programming Interface (BrAPI) brings together partners for the definition of a standard Application Programming Interface (API) for plant breeding. It will serve to facilitate data exchange among different initiatives; expand the range of tools available; reduce unnecessary duplication of tasks and make a more efficient use of resources, and to increase communication among programmers working on similar projects (CoP). Learn more on Apiary  |  on GitHub

The platform for Excellence in Breeding (EiB) is a project of CGIAR, created in 2016 as part of their new portfolio of research programs and platforms, and led by the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT). Though the IBP also originated from a CGIAR program, today these are entirely independent but complementary initiatives. The IBP operates under a non-profit corporation registered in the US.

The International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) hosts the IBP central offices on their campus in El Batan, Mexico.

 

The Africa Rice Center (AfricaRice) hosts IBP activities and funds for Africa at their offices in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire.
